 Subject: Atari 400/800/XL/XE ST(e) joystick/mouse simulator

There's an alternative to emulating the entire Atari on some platform; you can simulate the peripherals as these usually fail due to being mechanical in nature. The motherboards usually don't fail unless someone physically damages them. Here's a link to an item I put up on auction on Ebay for simulating Atari joystick, mouse, etc.:

I have been able to use an old thinkpad (760ED) as a mouse/joystick for Atari ST and for keyboard and joystick for Atari 800.
